Is it just me or is anyone else delaying their orders of their Bronco?

Since the build and price has come out and I now know how much I’ll be spending along with what’s offered, I’m gonna go ahead and delay ordering. I was disappointed in the only roof option being the MIC gray and the painted black being delayed. My thought is if I’m gonna shell out $50 on a badlands like I want, why rush and compromise on something that will drive me nuts. Added the fact that in 2022 the will offer body paint matching top, I’m just gonna wait and make sure it’s exactly what I want.

just wondered if anyone else was having similar thoughts?

Having thoughts, yes. But just that - thoughts.

I too wanted the painted-black top. However, I've made a compromise in getting the gray MIC top, and then taking it to an auto body shop and having them sand it down, then paint it black to go better with a Cyber Orange exterior.

I'm hoping this plan will get me by until the painted-black top becomes available for purchase from the factory/dealership.

This compromise is also partially fueled by the fact I anticipated getting a new vehicle 10-11 months from now (hopefully sooner) since my current one is pushing 150k+ miles and has seen better days.

I wish Ford would give us some guidance here eventually before ordering when they believe the painted HT will be available because then I would just order the 4 door with the soft top and then purchase the HT when it becomes available...

nope, the grey top will become white or black with Line-X ultra and a little money, plus I will be able to drive my Bronco much sooner.

Your not the only one. I feel if I pay this much it should be pretty sweet. Ford isn’t earning my money they are just expecting it. Probably wait and see what the warthog looks like. I just hope theY don’t jack things up like they have with the bad lands. I was really looking forward to all the offerings they were going to provide and then they slowly started taking it away. Things will only get better when people push back otherwise they will continue to do dumb things.

I agree, delaying also allows me to see what other changes they make and whether or not a Warthog would be worth it.
Sadly it seems they are kinda just pushing stuff through and this first group will be guinea pigs for Ford

Going to order what I can, enjoy a Bronco for a few years, then order hopefully the lifetime owning Bronco a few years from now when they figure stuff out.

I was hyped for this launch but it's been a let down...that being said, it's still pretty badass and the best option out there for me.

The MIC grey top isn't a big deal to me, I don't want painted because scratches off road, but grey is ugly, I wanted black MIC.

The deal breaker for me is that every single exterior color sucks, and the forced neon orange stitching and trim in the BL is gross and only looks good with CO especially since body color shows through the doors to the inside

Ford is doing a pretty good job of delaying my order as is.
